Stuck Lens My 4 year old got a hold of my Konica Minolta Dimage G6000 and now my lens is stuck half way out. It will not move in or out. When it powers on I get "system error S0042." As I do not have a lot of money I am tempted to take it apart and see if I can fix it, but I don't want to make any problem worse. Any suggestions? Thanks, Todd.

Konica Minolta DIMAGE G600 getting System error S 0042 message

I have an error code on my Sony Handycam SDR-12 HDD. The code is E31:00.
The manual says I cannot fix the problem. Do you know what the problem might be? It started as a format disk error. I reformatted the Hard Drive. The camera recorded fine, but the error code is still flashing.

I found the answer on another site and was able to fix my camera myself. E24 means your LCD display has come unplugged. What happens if you rotate the screen too much you tighten up the wire and it pulls the connection out of its socket. There ar ...

Sony HDR-HC3E error code C31 22 and message 'reinsert cassete'. I've reinserted cassette, tried another new cassette, checked for dirt etc. It was working the day before, it will record but on playback the error code and message appear, and tape stops. It will play last 2 seconds of recorded video. I've removed power, battery, pressed reset. No mechanical damage. What is causing it?

I have a Panasonic VDR-M50 camcorder. I was attempting to finalize several DVD-R discs and received two different error codes : 0901 and 0280. After receiving the codes, the camcorder locked up and refuses to even correctly access the disks now. I really don't want to lose this data, and Panasonic technical support wants me to send in the camera. However, the camera successfully finalized other discs in between the ones with errors and also still properly records on a new disc. Please help!

Hey there\015\012\015\012those errors are read/write errors done with the blank disks. this usually happens when the it writes too damn fast or slows down. Heat is also one factor from successive burning...you will get random codes like t ...
